I used to work and take a salary
In a hole up near a factory
But it did not take me too long
To lace up my boots and say "So Long!"
Long Spanish boots on a "So Long!"

I took a day job in Bethlehem
I nearly threw in the towel then
But it did not take me too long
To lace up my boots and say "So Long!"
I raised high Spanish boots on a "So Long!"

I took a Spanish haberdashery
Restored with 15th century tapestry
Oh, Mr. Nesbitt got the best of me
So I strapped on my boots and said "So Long!"
Laced up my high boots and "So Long!" Yeeaahh!
